Paralympic Trials Start Tomorrow
After two days of measurement and three days of practice the trials get started tomorrow. Prediction is for the mid 70’s, 6 to 10 knots. of wind. Five boats will compete for the one and only spot to represent the United States in China in 2008. Maureen and I are looking forward to the competition. Sixteen races are scheduled over the next 9 days. Daily results should be posted on line at the U.S. sailing website (www.ussailing.com) Mike Pinckney and Dan Tucker have prepared the boat well and we are ready to go. Mary Kate, Clarence , Ira, Colin, and Chad will be here to support….much appreciated. Hope to be posting daily. Check back often and send good thoughts.

Good luck Nicky huh?!
